Zelda Knight is back with us today 12pm SLT to talk about the new anthology “Africa Risen” which she co-edited with Sheree Renée Thomas and Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki.

Over 500 pages of magnificent short stories by African writers, either working out of their home continent or in the diaspora.

The fact that this volume is already among NPR’s “Best Books of 2022” gives this reader tremendous hope for a brilliant future of more diverse voices in speculative fiction!

To shorten the wait until showtime = get the book and/or visit the Book Club archipelago and watch past shows via the playlist below:
